Orthodontics
Improving function and appearance…gently

At Saratoga Dental we use an innovative approach called functional orthodontics to give our patients broader, healthier smiles. This Gentle, effective technique is suited to children and adults.

Headgear is a thing of the past and extraction of permanent teeth is almost never necessary. Instead of taking out teeth to fit the jaw, We guide the growth of the jaws to fit the teeth and find a place of perfect alignment and function.  What previously were considered problems handled only by surgery are now resolved by common nonsurgical functional orthodontic techniques.

As primary-care dentists, we are able to catch and address emerging problems at an early age, while the bones are still growing and the child is more receptive to treatment.
This early intervention:
• Saves permanent teeth
• Eliminates the need for headgear
• Eliminates or cuts time in braces
• Reduces the potential for chronic head pain.

By using the most modern functional orthodontic techniques, we can tackle problems here in our office that once required surgery. And unlike most orthodontic offices, we will monitor and maintain your alignment at your regular check-ups for years to come.
